Exactly. I was watching a Podcast with Our Chuck and Fegan. It seems Fegan doesn't think the Sox will contend until 2030.

I'm trying to figure out why Milwaukee traded Civale for Vaughn and made the money even. For Getz, this was a no brainer. You might not get much for Civale, but it will be more than he could have gotten for Vaughn, and with the money sent, he should be able to get more than the Brew Crew could have gotten had they traded him for a prospect or two.

Today Game! Father's Day. Rangers vs Sox

3rd base coach held him up. He probably thought Semien might throw to 3rd. -
Sox trade Andrew Vaughn to acquire Aaron Civale

No there were worse players, but only 2 that got that big of a chance. -
Sox trade Andrew Vaughn to acquire Aaron Civale
Dick Allen replied to WestEddy's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I read something that of all players who have at least 2000 plate appearances with the White Sox, Vaughn has the 3rd lowest WAR. I was so happy when the Sox got him. He was advertised as Konerko on steroids, a guy that knew the strike zone inside and out, something not many White Sox could say. Maury would now say that was a lie. -

Is Hostetler still employed by the White Sox? -
I have DirecTV. They had this channel from the get go. When the weather is bad, the signal goes, but recently they did something where it will switch to an internet connection, but not on this channel.

Jeff Torborg was a classy guy.

Grant Taylor set to join White Sox in HOU
Dick Allen replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Depends which version. Although technically not the GM after 2012, he lost it. It was weird. He was always able to get guys who could hit. They might not be able to run or field, but they could hit. Then suddenly just about everyone he picked up couldn't hit, like the Sox had no idea how to recognize hitting. -

Sox could use a closer. -
So they are slightly better than the team that set the all time record for losses. Rejoice Sox fans, and those that said they are the same or worse are such fools. I think most on here figured they would win more than 41 games. It's not really a high bar. Calling people out because of a 6 game hot streak, which was nice to see, is absurd. This team sucks.

Arlington Heights making stadium pitch to White Sox?

The double cheeseburger at 35th Steet is easily the greatest $7 double cheeseburger and fries in Chicago. Plus the fried shrimp is supreme. -

Didn't a players' poll call him the most overrated? He's been awesome the entire playoffs. I'd love him on my team. -
Nashville won't build them a stadium either. They blew their wad on a football stadium.

JR did say they were going to do whatever is necessary to give White Sox fans the team they deserve/
-
Right it could be 9 years. And JR could croak tomorrow and his son could run the White Sox the next 9 years like he runs the Bulls. The Bulls yearly goal used to be more commonly known as "NBA hell".

4 years is a while. 4 years ago, the Sox were pretty good.

Wake me up in 4 years.

Their advertising revenue has to be at an all time low. Top Notch Burgers ads? High School sports can get that. Maybe this will help them.

Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.

Makes me wonder if he's older than advertised. -

There's a lot of BS in his statement. Of course there was a lot of BS in his reason to hire Getz. The real reasons probably were loyalty to JR and $.
